Worst hotel I have ever stayed. Whole place is disgustingly dirty, room has strong smell to mould. You can also hear doors slamming and everything from the other rooms until very late at night. They do not do housekeeping, even tho they advertise as they do, and when you request them to do it, they will just make up the bed (with dirty sheets) and replace the towels, don't bother to clean anything or even to swipe the toilet or hoover a bit the room, which is fully stained and looks completely disgusting. We found the gel and shampoo with the safe seal broken and hair around. When we complained about this, they try to scam us, we got told in return we'd have to pay extra for our pet, which they never mention during booking, check in, or the several nights we stayed there. Be aware of these people, this disgusting place, and save yourself a pain, stay elsewhere!

We were prepared to enjoy our stay in spite of the building being swathed in scaffolding because it looked like an old fashioned ‘smart’ hotel. However the disappointment started when both keys provided for our room, could not be turned in the lock. I had to go downstairs again twice to get help. Eventually the staff had a go, admitted defeat and said we would be upgraded to a nicer room. We were exhausted from walking all day and then hauling our luggage up four flights of stairs so we were not impressed at not being able to get into our room. This was only achieved after having to phone the manager (off premises) for permission to upgrade us. I dread to think what our original room was like as this room was small, had a dirty carpet, black mould on the wallpaper, a very thin stream of hot water that took forever to fill the bath. While in the bath, the shower rail and curtain fell on my head as it was just balanced against the walls. We decided not to eat in and after a night in an admittedly comfortable bed, we went shopping for breakfast. As we handed our key back, a voice from out of sight called ‘safe journey’. I would have preferred a discount for our inconvenience and at least an inquiry as to whether all was well after our bad start.

We went for an overnight stay just to spend some time in Scarborough as we hadn't been there for a while. We saw this hotel online and it looked nice and was not too expensive. We walked from the train station as it is only about 10 mins away and quite easy to find. They are doing some renovation work to outside and there is scaffolding around the building. We went in and it is very quaint and has a little old fashioned decor in the downstairs areas, but it is very clean and tidy. We were checked in by a lovely helpful lady. There is a lift which is can hold 2 people snugly, if your on the large side you will have to cuddle. I would say that a wheelchair user would not be able to get in. The room we had was at the end of a narrow corridor and was lovely, it looked like it has recently been decorated and was spotlessly clean, with an en suite shower and toilet. There was complimentary coffee,tea and milk and kettle. In the en suite was complimentary shampoo/showr gel and soap, with clean towels. The room was at the back of the hotel and it was very quiet, apart from the seagulls that were around which is normal. We ate out but you could have a meal if you ordered at the bar, which the lady said she would open early if we would like a drink. She also said we could have breakfast in the morning which could be paid for at the bar on arrival. Overall it was a very nice and pleasant stay. It is a bit outside the main shopping area, about 10 mins walk across the bridge and up a slightly steep incline and there is steps at the entrance so if you have trouble walking don't go there.

For a budget priced hotel the staff are very friendly! They were lovely to our dog and made her welcome. Rooms are clean and adequate and drinks/food very reasonable. The breakfast was exceptional and the lady who cooks the breakfast was lovely. If I lived in Scarborough I’d be there every weekend to have breakfast! Thank you to the lovely staff.

The Rivelyn was as they say VFM you get what you pay for generally.Hotel was very quiet being early january so we suspect we got one of the better rooms 117 probably the one in pic . On opening door i was taken aback by size of bed it was huge 7foot wide room was large and spacious with a bathroom with large walk in shower wc and sink with illuminated mirror above .Lots of drawer space 14 large drawers and a walk in wardrobe with loads of space. Largish tv on wall . Tea and coffee making facility and a hairdryer in one of drawers. decoration was pleasant not posh by any means but being a budget hotel it was adequate.Clean and bed was very comfortable.Lift to all floors although it was the smallest lift i ever saw (3 person ) or me and one other.Breakfast was fantastic on two occasions lots of content as much tea coffee and juice as you wanted for £1.50 breakfast varied dependant on size but mega was less than £10 including drinks 3 bacon 3 sausage 3 fried bread eggs beans tomatoes .on the last day breakfast was dire same amounts but foods all different temperature ranging from Mushrooms being stone cold to Eggs being warm enough ,sausage beans and toms barely warm and waited well over 20 mins even though only us and one other chap being served, Fantastic breakfast was a lady the dire example was a youngish chap . Staff generally very good bar staff in particular (Emma) i think Hotel is just out of town a 5-10 minute walk dependant on fitness of the walker .In a good spot i feel fairly handy for the Port a 5 min walk and bus to whitby was 10 mins .Would i stay again ? Most definitely .Hotel has scaffolding all round as refurb ongoing .

We came here for Christmas week and it has been a wonderful experience. We got a big double room with a very comfortable bed. On Christmas Day we had the most amazing Christmas dinner courtesy of Linda and Adele. This hotel offers unbeatable value for money.

Nice affordable accomodation. Our room had been recently renovated and was lovely and clean and tidy. Comfortable bed (Although a bit soft for me), beautiful modern bathroom, big enough for a couple for a couple of nights. Breakfast was very affordable.
